SUMMARY:Safeguarding 3: Online Workshop\, Designated Liaison Person
DESCRIPTION:Safeguarding 3:  The third part of the ISC Child Welfare & Protection Training Programme is the Designated Liaison Person workshop. \nA person appointed to the Designated Liaison Person position in a club must have completed the Child Welfare & Protection Basic Awareness Course and should complete the NEW Designated Liaison Person 3 hour workshop. A club may appoint the same person to both the CCO and DLP positions however best practice advises that they are kept as separate roles. \nParticipants aged 16 or 17 must submit a consent form\, signed by parent/guardian.  Consent form can be emailed back to info@laoissports.ie \nDesignated Liaison Person \nEvery club/organisation should designate a person to be responsible for dealing with any concerns about the protection of children. The Designated Liaison Person is responsible for reporting allegations or suspicions of child abuse to TULSA Child and Family Agency or Social Services (NI) and/or An Garda Siochán / PSNI. It is recommended that this person is a senior club person. However\, if there is difficulty identifying a separate individual to take this role\, the Club Children’s Officer can be appointed as Designated Liaison Person once the club/organisation is clear about the responsibilities of each role. The organisation’s child protection policy and procedures should include the name and contact details of the Designated Liaison Person and the responsibilities attached to the role. \nFAQs \nOnline Workshop \nThis course will be delivered online via the Zoom platform.
